Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Mawwage is what bwings us togethew today!

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

So do we have to wait for anything in order to apply for that? I assume we at least have to wait for them to mail it to us...

I wonder if the paper that we do have is useful for anything at all. :p
Stupid bureaucracy.

.... AND the marriage license place has had a computer crash and can't do anything today. Grrr.

Oh well, I had a nice talk with the recruiter lady and she's going to try to set me up an interview for later this week. It's a three-month contract but it sounds like the sort of thing I've been wanting to land.

The banks might need to wait on that stuff too.

I'm glad to see y'all taking a proactive approach to this. The Mrs. didn't change her name on her SS card until about four years ago. The first time I tried to file our taxes online. It wouldn't let me 'cause the names didn't match.

How did you do bank accounts and such? Don't they need that first?

Heh...it's been so long I don't remember. I think she changed everythign BUT the SS#. She moved from NC to Virginia, so she did the Driver's License right away. I think that's all they required.

'course that was 20 years ago...

Apparently if I had the right marriage certificate I could get my license changed without worrying about the SSN, or vice versa. But since I don't I'm kind of in limbo. And I would like to get it done sooner rather than later... sigh...

This says you can get a license with the marriage certificate OR a license... For name change... but for changing residency you need proof of SSN so that is more.

But this says you get get Iowa residency until you register to vote, are here for 30 daysm or some other stuff. Check them out. Looks like we can't do anything just yet except request the full marriage license. I am betting the bank requires less since they can always add you with your old name.

When I left for work today, Cisco was in the dog house. Hopefully he'll figure out that it's a nice place to be on cold wet days! And sleep in there instead of complaining to the world at large.

Well, here's a tidbit of info...

I came home from grocery shopping on Saturday and Steve was out in the yard. He said "You got something in the mail...it's on the TV". So I went in and it was a big envelope, said OSU on it. His diploma!! I said "Did you open it?" He said no, he thought I'd want to.

So I guess he really did graduate! LOL!!!

Remember my Kentucky Wonder bean teepee? It did great, beautiful plants, but it apparently was too hot and the bean blossoms would just fall off. I gave up on them and even quit watering them. But lately they've come back and guess what! We'll likely eat our first batch of beans this evening!

Ha!

Well you worked hard for it, too! Tell Steve, "Congratulations!"

Damsel in distress?

Hope the problem with the Ranger is nothing big!
